What is a fractional share?

A fractional share is just that: a fraction of a whole share. Companies issue whole units of stocks, called shares, which are then traded on the public market for investors to buy. If you buy a fractional share that means you’re buying a little piece of a company’s stock – a fraction of it.

Whereas a single share in a company might cost $1,000, fractional shares mean you can still invest in a company with $10 or $100.

You'll need to invest at least US$1.00. The minimum amount of shares you can buy is 0.00000001.

Please remember that when investing, your capital is at risk.
